Frazer Clarke vs Mariusz Wach – Results & Post-Fight Report

On top of a Boxxer promoted show at York Hall, Frazer Clarke gained valuable experience in widely outscoring Poland’s Mariusz Wach over ten rounds in their heavyweight contest.

2020 Olympic Bronze medallist Clarke had seen a potential clash with British champion Fabio Wardley fail to materialise, and his handlers have decided to take the Burton man in a different direction for now. This started with Wach, a former world challenger, but many moons ago, and at 43, he came to Bethnal Green in very much the back end of a long career.

Although Clarke had to withstand several clean shots during the bout, he was always in control, with combinations and crisp punches always keeping the Pole at bay, and even though he began to feel the pace, he had more than enough in the tank to see off the challenge of Wach.

Clarke would come through 100-90 on the cards, and the prospect of facing Wardley was promised by his handlers post-fight.

Caroline Dubois (7-0, KO5) had her toughest test to date on paper, but she came through with flying colours, taking every round of eight at lightweight against Argentina’s Yanina del Carmen Lescano (13-3, KO4). Dubois took a fifth round knockdown courtesy of a meaty left hand, and she took the win by a score of 80-71.

Isaac Chamberlain (15-2, KO8) took out his frustrations of the past month or so by banking eight rounds in a cruiserweight eight round points win against Dylan Bregeon (13-4-1, KO3). The Londoner took a handy 78-74 win for the referee.

Aaron McKenna (17-0, KO8) was given the toughest assignment of his career to date, but he did more than enough to take the WBC International middleweight title by taking a unanimous points win against Uisma Lima (10-1, KO8). The Irishman took victory by scores of 100-91, 98-92 and 98-92.

Viddal Riley (9-0, KO6) left no doubt in his rematch with Anees Taj (7-4, KO5), as he took a fourth round knockout in their cruiserweight clash set for eight.

Adam Azim was due to headline the card, but had to pull out through injury. His brother Hassan Azim (7-0, KO4) still appeared, and he impressed in halting Ruben Angulo (8-7-2, KO4) in the opener of a scheduled eight at welterweight. Chopping right hands had the Columbian over with just over 90 seconds gone, and his legs wee shaky during the count, forcing the referee to wave the contest off.

Sam Gilley (16-1, KO8) had a first outing of 2021, and a wicked body shot ended matters in the sixth and final round of his super welterweight contest against Ellis Corrie (7-2-1, KO2).

Roman Fury (2-0, KO0) made his second pro start, and the cruiserweight took a four round decision win against the podgy Erik Nazaryan (29-33-4, KO22). Fury got the nod by a score of 40-36.

Joshua Gustave (5-0, KO0) stayed unblemished, taking a 60-53 verdict over six at middleweight against Remi Scholer (3-6, KO0).
